 A: Try running MPlayer on the machine you compiled on. Or recompile. Don't
    use MPlayer on different CPU than it was compiled on.
 
-Q: I have problems with WindowMaker and fullscreen xv/xmga/sdl/x11 modes..
-   It was OK before the ICCCM-compliance patch.
-A1: Known problem, ICCCM sucks.
-A2: Turn off ICCCM compliance by editing libvo/x11_common.c line 161 and
-    replacing #if 1 with #if 0 . Then recompile.
+Q: I have problems with <your window manager> and fullscreen xv/xmga/sdl/x11
+   modes..
+A: Yes, it's a bug. But not only our bug. We couldn't yet develop any
+   windowmanager-independent method to make window really fullscreen.
+   There was some version, but there are always users with problems.
+   I think the only solution is adding a new switch, for example -fsmode
+   to select which method should be used.
+   Unfortunately most common window managers aren't compatible with standards
+   or Motif wm. So standard ways to enable fullscreen doesn't work with them.
+   And non-standard modes not work for standard-compliant wm's.
 
 Q: But it works with avifile !
 A: So what?
